title="Describing and Synthesizing Microfluidics">
<short>
<p>
Derek Rayside presents current research on the field of microfluidics.
Microfluidics are currently developed mainly by trial and error. How can
this be improved?
</p>
</short>
<abstract>
<p>
Microfluidics is an exciting new area concerned with designing devices
that perform some medical diagnoses and chemical synthesis tasks orders
of magnitude faster and less expensively than traditional techniques.
However, microfluidic device design is currently a black art, akin to
how digital circuits were designed before 1980.
<br></br>
We have developed a
hardware description language that is appropriate for the description
and synthesis of both single-phase and multi-phase microfluidic devices.
These are new results that have not yet been published. This is
collaborative work with other research groups in Mechanical Engineering,
Chemical Engineering, and Electrical Engineering.

title="Constitutional GM and Code Party 1">
<short>
<p>
GM for the W2015 term, two main amendments to be discussed: Requiring
elections to be held within two weeks of the beginning of term and
adopting a club-wide code of conduct.
<br></br>
Code Party 1 follows, we're doing timed code golf problems, T-shirts might
find themselves on people who do well on code golf.
